I was changing the oil on my personal truck (08 f150 super crew 4x4 with the 5.4l flex fuel motor) and saw a leak that appears to be coming from this line or one of its connectors. I can't find a diagram that shows it so I'm not sure what part to buy to replace it. This hose runs directly above the front crossmember and under the little shield that you slide the oil filter down.

Also do the 08s have the motors with the spark plug issue?

 

Some 08s had issues, some didn't . Black cop boots were the ones with issues, and brown cop boots were the ones without issues is my understanding. That could be a power steering line, but it's hard to tell.

 

Any other ideas on what this line would be called?

 

What was posted was correct about the coils. I guess you missed that since you didn't acknowledge.

Just see where the line goes. Looks like PS to me as well. Hell all you have to do is look.

 

I understand the coils. That's not a huge issue yet. The coolant leaking out of the bottom of my truck is what I am concerned about. If I can take different pictures to help ID it let me know. I am talking about the black rubber hose not the hard lines

 

Where does it start from, where does it end up? I don't understand what's so difficult? Well, use a flash light if you have to iduno..

If it's coolant, then it may be your oil cooler line.
